Hi everyone,
The old Lady has a 1986 FXRD and the tranny is in need of some serious loving, False nuetrals, hard to find nuetral, goes in to gear hard(more than usual), pops out of 1st. You get the picture.
Instead of piulling and rebuliding the stock taper shaft tranny I may as well upgrade to a splined shaft unit.
Has any one been there done that? It is the same unit as a FLT I hear, so you early road glide guys can chime in as well.
Is the splined shaft tranny a completely different unit?
Can I rebuild mine and swap out the taper shaft for a splined shaft?
If I do swap out the main shaft am I missing out on other upgrades a later trans will have?
Is there a splined shaft trans that uses the early starter?
Any help is appreciated,
PanScott
